no. a more accurate description is definitely "stickers." but everyone knows and searches "emoji" much more. this is more of a marketing naming decision, i agree that it isn't accurate.
- mherdeg 9y agoAh gotcha. So is the idea to signal to future partner companies that the product is like a 3rd party version of "Animoji", using cool pictures to collect a big corpus of face feature data for future products?
